The Cantina Tombacco Aglianico appears dark, deep, ruby red in the glass with clear purplish tones. This wine is clear and complex on the nose with enjoyable hints of cherry and red berries fragrance, followed by a marked vanilla and spicy note. Excellent mouth entry, elegant and warm, sapid and full-bodied on the palate. Good length and persistence that leaves an enjoyable soft sensation and a pleasant mouth which asks for another sip. With nuances of cherry, plum and spice.
Aglianico combines very well with all roasted red meats and aged cheeses.
100% Aglianico vineyards in the Benevento province.
The winemaking of the Aglianico is made in a traditional manner through daily pumping over for the first 3-4 days after the harvest. After this initial phase then follows a lengthy daily pumping until the alcoholic fermentation is accomplished. When the alcoholic fermentation is over, the skins are softly pressed in order to obtain the best conditions for the start of the malolactic fermentation. After the malolactic fermentation, the wine is racked 2 or 3 times before being transferred partly into steel vats and partly into 500 liters tonneaus for the ageing process.
